[SML] Basic lighting video

[e-mail frank.wood95]

I don't know of a video. However, there is an excellent collection of
stills in Richard Pilbrow's book "Stage Lighting Design" (ISBN 1 85459
273 4). I can reccomment this strongly to all lighting designers.

When I was teaching at the BBC's Engineering Training School, a small
sudio was set up with a rig to demonstrate all these effects, live.
There was a dummy head, with small fresnels rigged to light it from
all possible angles, and a small control system, and a TV camera. I
should be surprised if a video had not been made by Bill McVeigh, the
specialist. How to find it is beyond me.
